Finding Fabulous Food, Photos and Crafts to Share
Book Update: I have updated my Goodreads profile. I would love to be friends with you and see what everyone else is reading! Here is the Goodreads link to my page. It’s free and fun to be able to keep track of everything I’ve read – and handy since it will link up to Amazon, too. Right …
Freezer Meals: I have been working using the Wildtree workshops, using other ingredients and putting my own interpretation on some of the recipes. Here is a copy of the “Get Your Grill On” Wildtree Freezer Meal Workshop in my own words. If you are unable to afford or obtain the Wildtree ingredients, I put substitutes …
Update: I haven’t read many books since the last post. I have been working with my Silhouette machine making vinyl tiles, cards and brainstorming an Etsy store idea. Here are some of the tiles I have made with vinyl. I took the floor tile from the hardware store and had a LOT of fun with …
Book: I have found another Alton Brown book! How does he have the time? Well, anyway it is “I’m Just Here for More Food: Version 2.0 Baking”. This is probably the BEST baking book out there for understanding baking. I love love love King Arthur Flour and all of their recipe books. But, if …
Book: I finally wanted the “Ender’s Game” movie after seeing it at the library. The reviews I heard were not good, but I thought the movie did well. For book readers, like myself, I can see why they find it disappointing. But, I wish I had seen the battle games on the big movie screen. …
We interrupt this regularly scheduled program to bring you royal icing and sugar cookies! I have two pork tenderloin recipes ready to go for matching with the Maple Mash Butternut Squash. However, I had another wonderful group of moms at a local MOPS group hear my presentation on how to decorate cakes and cupcakes. Everyone …
I have tried for a year to re-page number my book to no avail. If someone knows how to unformat a document in Open Office that would be great. My other option is to copy and paste it into a new document section by section, but somehow copying and pasting the book also transports …
This is my biggest pet peeve with recipes and Martha Stewart does this a LOT. Her first instruction in cookies (and some other recipes) is #1 preheat to oven to 350 degrees. And then by step 3, you are told to put the dough in the oven for an hour or MORE. Like seriously?! …
Summer is my favorite time for citrus. This cookie can be anything you want it to be – fall, summer, spring or winter. You can use a seasonal jam like I did here with strawberry-rhubarb, or try these around the holidays with blueberry or a more traditional apricot. If you are interested in a great …
Book Update: No books. I did watch “Saving Mr. Banks”. Such a great movie! Emma Thompson was sooo good. Tonight, I saw “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” because my friend John was in the musical. Here’s my new lunchbox though! I can’t wait. I wish I was teaching school just to put it on my desk. Recipe: So …
